readers to our postscript ; and hope that for the future there may be no difference . Morality has its strong and sacred rules , which preclude the possibility of concealment , that the law of charity and candour may not be transgressed with impunity . We would warn any who
doubt this ; they may be pitied , but will be fortunate if censure should stop short of contempt . DR . OLIVER . —This reverend Brother has been
labouring under indisposition , caused by attending a Grand Lodge at Peterborough , during the late rainy season . We are happy to state that he has considerably rallied , and has used his Masonic pen with even more than his usual industry , as will be seen in his erudite article in the
present number , and by the re-production of a New Edition of Hutchinson ' s Spirit of Masonry ; into which he has also infused so much of his own , as to make the work invaluable . At the recent Grand Lodge at Peterborough , the learned Brother delivered a valedictory
address , in which he adverted to the probability of his public retirement from Masonry . After a life of such lengthened and continued services , it is wrong to press
hard on so valuable a member of society—whose retirement into the bosom of his famil y will , we hope , be accompanied b y every blessing from the Great Architect : but there is oue more public meeting that we pray him to attend , and at no distant period , when grateful Brethren
shall meet to present him with a " Masonic Offering " — as their Monitor—Friend—Guide—Brother . It has been considered most respectful to Dr . Oliver not yet to close the subscriptions ; and we invite those Lodges and Brethren who have not yet enrolled themselves , to consult the advertisement and follow , without delay , the course that has been taken by so many others .
